Last night I spend several hours trying to get a website working with=20
apache22 and then apache20 and mod_perl2.  I never succeeded.

This website works fine with apache1.3.* and mod_perl.  We run the UBB=20
bulletin board, which is written in perl.  All the executable files are=20
named *.cgi.

I googled and read document after document, waded through the apache=20
mod_perl site until my eyes were crossed, all to no avail.  In apache20,=20
after configuring httpd.conf in what I thought was the right way, I got a=20
Forbidden error.  Obviously, I checked perms (even made the 777 briefly),=20
but no go.  In apache22, all I ever got was the plain text of the program=20
file.

Does anyone know of a website that can unlock the mystery of mod_perl2 on=20
apache2?  I figure sooner or later I'm going to have to move to apache2,=20
but I sure can't do that until I figure out how to get it working.
